    Weird Tab Key Results with VBA

    Every once in awhile, when I press the Tab Key on the form (with excel in the back), it creates a Tab within the textbox which has the focus. It does not move to the next cell.

    I have the Mulitiline and the TabKey Behavior BOTH set to False. It only seems to do it every so often, without a noticeable reason....

    Any ideas on how to fix this ?

    Re: Weird Tab Key Results with VBA

    What version of Excel are you using? Did you set the TabKey = False in the property window or via code?

    The development machine was updated last week.
    Been some time for the application machine (without the SP3)....

    but can't seem to reproduce the error now.....I know I am not going crazy...and I havent changed the properties...

    Perhaps it copuld be a bug with Excel XP? Maybe a search on MS would shed some light on this.

    Thanks for your help, I don't see anything on the MS site...
    I will wait for it to do it again, and analyze everything a little closer...

    Thanks again!
